Rise of the Dark Witch

sough.

The bamboo forest swayed.

Sparse sunlight fell on the ground through the gaps in the bamboo leaves, swimming like a fish.

Listening to the sweet chirping of cicadas, feeling the snapping of dead branches under his feet, and watching the bamboo leaves falling from the air, Luo Ya strolled happily.

Double bamboo forest.

A gathering place for the bipolar hunter clan.

When Roja was still an apprentice, the Demon Fighting Sword from the Bipolar Hunter clan gave him great help. It can be said that without the Demon Fighting Sword, he would not be where he is today.

Although he obtained the Demon Fighting Sword in an equal transaction with Adams, he does not owe anything to the Bipolar Hunters.

But because the benefits brought to him by the Demon Fighting Sword were so great, he felt that if he had the opportunity, he would try his best to help the bipolar hunter.

He is a man who repays kindness.

His repayment may be late, but it is never absent.

Led by a servant, he came to the depths of the Shuangzhu Forest, where bipolar hunters gathered.

The Bipolar Hunters are the strongest blood-forbidden clan in the Six Kingdoms, and even third-class apprentices have the strength to fight official wizards.

As the most powerful clan in the Six Kingdoms, the Bipolar Hunters were a powerful clan that could not even establish their own country, but they lived in a remote Shuangzhu Forest far away from human habitation.

The residential buildings are all made of bamboo and wood.

It’s not that bamboo and wood cannot be used to build luxurious and spectacular buildings, but the houses of the Bipolar Hunters are obviously not as luxurious and spectacular as they are. From Roja’s perspective, they can only be called simple buildings.

The gathering place of the so-called bipolar hunter clan is more like a village than a city.

Including the servants who numbered just over a hundred, it was indeed a village.

When Roja arrived at the Bipolar Hunter gathering place, almost everyone in the Bipolar Hunter clan had arrived, and hundreds of people were waiting for Roja at the entrance of the village.

When they saw Roja appear, everyone had unconcealable joy on their faces.

The clan leader and several elders couldn't wait to greet Roja.

"Lord Roja, thank you for coming." Patriarch Duer knelt in front of Roja and kissed Roja's shoes.

Roja glanced around.

Looking at the Chinese-style village in front of me, and listening to the sound of gurgling water and loud crowing of roosters coming from the depths of the village, I felt a little lost.

"Take me around your village." Roja said.

"Yes." Duer nodded in response.

Since this was the first time Luo Ya had seen this Chinese-style village in this world for seventy years, he became interested and spent the whole day wandering around the small village.

When he was done shopping, he was still thinking about building some Chinese-style gardens when he returned, but he quickly gave up this idea.

dusk.

The whole village was dyed with a layer of red gauze under the afterglow of the setting sun.

The patriarch of the Bipolar Hunters took Roja to a frozen underground space.

In the ice, a very familiar figure of Luo Ya was sleeping.

Roja stared directly at Adams in the ice, speechless for a long time.

Adams, who conducted wizard trials with him, taught him how to fight with demon swords, and fought with hellhounds, his time seemed to have stopped fifty years ago.

Adams, frozen in the ice, looked the same as when he was separated.

He still looks so young, with a hint of childishness on his handsome face.

The strongest person in the Wizard Trial back then, an existence that was unattainable in Roja's eyes, has forever stagnated in the realm of a first-class apprentice.

Seeing each other again after decades, Luo Ya felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

During the wizard trial, Adams successfully obtained the wolf god's mark that allowed his mental power to break through the boundaries.

The Wolf God's Mark is much more powerful than Roja's Divine Seal Limit Breaking Bead, but precisely because it is too powerful, no one can bear it.

The moment Adams received the mark of the Wolf God, he fell into a coma on the spot and became a vegetative person who was alive but no different from dead.

Over the years, people from the Bipolar Hunter clan have tried to awaken Adams, but unfortunately they couldn't.

At the same time, they tried to take out the wolf god's mark in Adams' mental space, but they couldn't do it either.

They can't do anything. Once Adams dies of old age, their thousands of years of hard work will be in vain.

Obtaining the Wolf God's Mark can be said to be the result of the right time, right place, and right people. If they were given another thousand years, they would not be able to get it again.

In order not to lose the only Wolf God mark, they could only freeze Adams and wait for a way to revive Adams or remove the Wolf God mark from Adams.

They waited for fifty years.

Fifty years of their efforts have shown no possibility of success, and there is no hope for the future.

Just when they thought that their efforts for thousands of years would be in vain, Roja appeared.

With Roya, the strongest man in the Six Kingdoms, who had just defeated the second-level Blue Wizard in a fair battle, they saw hope.

Under the nervous gaze of Duer, the patriarch of the bipolar hunter clan, Roja closed his eyes and released his spiritual power towards the frozen Adams.

As soon as his mental power entered Adams' mental space, he was immediately burned by scorching flames, as if he had arrived in purgatory where the fire of hell was everywhere.

With just one glance, Roja knew Adams' current situation.

The Mark of the Wolf God has been integrated with Adams' mental space. Under the influence of the Mark of the Wolf God, the size of Adams' mental space has been greatly expanded. In a sense, the long-cherished wish of the bipolar hunter family has been half successful.

If Adams's self-awareness hadn't been destroyed by the Mark of the Wolf God.

"It's really unrealistic for a first-class apprentice to absorb the mark of the Wolf God."

With the powerful effect of the wolf god's mark, even Roja, who was on the eve of his attack on the official wizard, had to be extremely careful when absorbing it, otherwise an accident would occur if he was not careful.

At that time, Roja had a mental power that was comparable to that of a newly promoted first-level wizard, and with the support of the Two Soul Certificates, it was so difficult to face the Mark of the Wolf God, let alone the first-class apprentice Adams.

Adams was hopeless.

It was impossible to wake Adams.

The only thing that needs to be considered now is whether the effect of the Wolf God's mark in Adams' mental space can be channeled.

the answer is--

It's hard.

Even if he has 12 million units of mental power and his mental cultivation is more powerful than most spiritual wizards, it is very difficult to implement it.

If an accident occurs during the process, not only Adams himself will die, but also the person who received the Wolf God's mark, and the Wolf God's mark will also dissipate.

Because the risk is too great, people from the bipolar hunter clan simply don't dare to try it.

Even Roja, who has the certificate of two souls, has a very high probability of failure. Even a second-level spiritual wizard has a probability of success that is not necessarily as high as Roja.

If you want to do better than Roja, you have to invite a third-level spiritual wizard.

Seeing Roja retracting his gaze.

Duer immediately asked nervously: "Lord Roja, how are you doing?"

Roja shook his head slightly, with a look of regret on his face.

Duer understood immediately when he saw Roya's face. He gritted his teeth and turned pale.

"Adams's consciousness has been fragmented and disappeared. It is impossible to wake him up. As for using the wolf god mark in his mental space to help others break through the upper limit of mental power..." Roja thought for a while, "Now, I We are only 30% certain, and after studying for a period of time, we might be able to increase it to 70%.”

Du, who was already desperate, immediately raised his head and looked at Roja steadily.

That expression full of regret didn't seem to be fake, so what really made Roja sad was that he couldn't wake up Adams?

Roja, who has no connection with the bipolar hunter clan, is willing to help. It must be because of Adams, right?

Are Roya and Adams good friends?

When Duer's mind was full of random thoughts.

"If you have no objection to such a low success rate, I can give it a try." Roja said.

"Thirty percent to seventy percent... that's pretty good. Please excuse me, Lord Roya." Duer knelt down and thanked Roya: "Sir, if you need anything, just ask for it."

Roja touched his chin and thought for a while, then said: "I need to study the physique of your bipolar hunter clan."

Duer immediately replied: "We have many frozen corpses. If you need living people, we can also provide them for you."

As a blood-forbidden clan, Bipolar Hunters have great research value.

Outsiders know this, and so do bipolar hunters themselves.

Therefore, they will preserve the corpses of their own people as much as possible, which can be used for their own research, and can also be used as a piece of wealth in exchange for things with others.

"Are you ready for the candidate to absorb the Wolf God's mark?" Roja asked.

"Who do you want?" Duer replied.

"It is best to have a direct blood relationship with Adams. The closer the blood relationship, the better."

"no problem."

After leaving the underground ice room, Duer quickly led a cute little girl to Roja.

Duer pointed at the cute little girl like a doll and said: "Lord Roja, she is Adams' great-granddaughter Lina. Do you think she meets the requirements?"

Roya didn't expect that Adams actually had great-grandchildren.

Does this mean that Adams was already married and had a bloodline before undergoing the wizard trial?

How old was Adams at that time?

Considering the average age of marriage in this world and the short lifespan of the bipolar hunter clan, it is normal for Adams to marry young and have offspring.

Roja knelt down in front of the girl Lina and carefully looked at this cute little girl who was only ten years old.

Lina's white and round face looked at him nervously.

However, Lina seemed nervous and scared, but Roja saw a hint of hidden arrogance deep in Lina's eyes. In fact, it's not that arrogant, it's just a lack of respect for Roja, a formal wizard. She regards Roja as an elder whose status is not too far from hers.

As a genius of the bipolar hunter family, Lina is destined to have the strength to fight against official wizards in the future. It is normal to put herself in the same position as the official wizards. It should be said that this is how the elders of the bipolar hunters taught her.

But Lina is obviously still too young, and she doesn't know that there are differences between official wizards.

Roja inspected Lina carefully and nodded with satisfaction.

He gently stroked Lina's little head and asked gently: "If you successfully absorb the power of the Wolf God's mark, I can give you a chance to become my student. What do you think?"

As a blood-forbidden clan, Bipolar Hunters are extremely powerful and can be said to be invincible at the same level.

It's just that his bloodline is too strong and his mental power cannot keep up, so he will never be able to become an official wizard in his lifetime.

Once her mental power catches up and she is no longer stuck in the realm, with Lina's bloodline and spiritual talent, she can step into the first level with a little resources. There is a high probability of reaching the second level in the future. Even the third level is not a dream.

With such a good seedling appearing in his country, how could he just let her slip away?

Youdao is "armed with sharp weapons and has a murderous intention". He must ensure that all the powerful people in the country are under his control.

The way to control the stronger Lina is naturally to accept her as a disciple and cultivate feelings for her from an early age before she grows up.

If Lina could successfully absorb the power of the Wolf God's Mark, with their bipolar hunter bloodline, third-level wizards would rush to accept her as their student.

The premise is success.

And if you want to succeed, you must rely on Roja.

If Roja's suggestion of accepting a disciple is rejected here, will Roja continue to help them?

And it’s not a disadvantage to be a student of Roya.

It may be that Duer's eyes played a role, it may be that Lina herself wants to be Roja's student, or it may be that the smart Lina knows that her destiny is in Roja's hands.

Regardless of the reason, Lina just thought for a few seconds before kneeling down in front of Roja, "Student Lina has met Teacher Roja!"

"Haha, if you want to become my real student, you have to wait until you succeed." Luo Ya laughed.

In the following time, Luo Ya lived in Shuangzhu Forest.

In order to increase the success rate of helping Lina integrate the wolf god's mark.

He used the corpses and living people of the Bipolar Hunters to study the body and spirit of the Bipolar Hunters.

He asked people to find a lot of spiritual materials and books, and learned a lot of spiritual knowledge.

Roja's spiritual cultivation is extremely high, but he has had very little involvement in spirituality over the years. He has only simply learned a few skills related to spiritual power to assist in combat, and has not unleashed his true potential in spiritual power at all.

After several months of systematically studying spiritual knowledge, he felt that his use of spiritual power had reached several levels, and the power of his spiritual skills had been greatly enhanced.

At the same time, he also guided Lina to practice, helping Lina adjust her body and spirit to prepare for the next ceremony.

In the blink of an eye.

Half a year has passed.

sough.

Lina, wearing a black short skirt, stood in the bamboo forest, raising her head and staring at the bamboo leaves swaying in the wind.

The wind blew the leaves, and Lina's vision alternated between light and shadow.

Click click click.

Listening to the sound of broken leaves coming from behind.

Lina turned around, held the hem of her skirt with both hands and saluted Roja, "Hello, teacher."

Roja glanced at Lina's white and slender calves, "Don't use such etiquette when wearing short skirts."

"Lina remembers." Lina nodded in response.

After half a year of getting along, Roja already has a certain understanding of Lina's character.

Lina is the kind of quiet young lady who is elegant and speaks little. She integrates etiquette into all aspects of life and is a perfect young lady who can't find fault in every aspect.

If I have to say there is any shortcoming, it is that it is a bit too rigid and not flexible enough.

"Let's go, the ceremony is about to begin."

Lina followed Roja obediently.

"Are you scared?" Roja asked.

"...Not afraid." Lina thought for a moment and shook her head slightly.

"Don't you ask about the success rate?"

"If it succeeds, it will naturally succeed. If it fails, it will be a failure." Lina replied.

"You're really open-minded." Roja smiled bitterly.

"So teacher, how sure are you?" Lina asked.

"Well……"

Roja actually felt like Lina was taking care of him. Was he cared about by a little girl of elementary school age?

"The success rate is less than 70%." Roja answered honestly.

"Isn't that already pretty good? Bipolar hunters have worked hard for thousands of years to achieve this 70% success rate. I believe no one will have any objection."

"I will be prepared to stop the ritual at any time depending on whether your body can bear it. Although your success rate of fully integrating the Wolf God's mark is only 70%, your probability of survival is 100%."

"Teacher, you don't have to worry about me. Just carry on with the ceremony. Even if it fails, no one will blame you."

"Hey, are you distracted?"

"What's the meaning?"

"The process of absorbing the wolf god's mark is the same as eating. You eat it bit by bit, rather than stuffing all the food into your stomach instantly. If you can't bear it anymore and stop the ritual, it doesn't mean that the food you eat will Even if it disappears, your upper limit of mental power can still exceed the limit of 10,000."

"...Teacher, what level of spiritual cultivation must be achieved to fully control the forbidden blood of our bipolar hunter clan and have the possibility of entering the official realm of wizards?"

"About 50,000 units."

"If I completely absorb the mark of the Wolf God, how much can my upper limit of mental power be increased to?"

"One hundred twenty thousand."

"Does that mean that even if I don't completely absorb the Wolf God's mark, I can still fully control my bloodline?"

"Yes."

Although Lina's expression doesn't seem to have changed at all, Lina's feeling has changed a lot.

Just now, it gave people the feeling of a dead soldier on a fatal mission. Although it was voluntary, it still exuded an aura of despair unconsciously.

Now it gives people the feeling of a light and happy little girl, and you can vaguely hear the songs humming deep in her heart.

Roja smiled and touched Lina's little head, "I will not accept a person who may die as a student. If I don't reject you as a master and disciple, you will not participate in the ceremony. Died."

Roja also wondered whether the smart Lina could detect this on her own, but he still needed to figure it out himself.

After all, Lina is just a ten-year-old girl, so you can't ask too much of her.

The ceremony takes place in a huge chamber deep underground.

Outside the door of the room, the top brass of the Bipolar Hunter clan were waiting nervously.

in the room.

As soon as Roja stepped on it, finger-thick vines spread from his feet, climbing all over the floor and walls.

Twisted vines formed runes one after another, constructing a complex witchcraft ritual.

Magic flows through the vines and the witchcraft ritual begins.

Adams and Lena each lay in corresponding positions during the witchcraft ceremony.

"ha."

Then Roja gave a low drink.

The entire room was immediately enveloped in a dazzling magical light, and the bodies of Adams and Lina naturally suspended in mid-air.

Roar--

A phantom of a demonic wolf with eight heads emerged from Adams, roaring with Roja.

When using it, an eight-headed demon wolf also appeared on Lina's body, but it was far less solid than the one on Adams.

Under Roja's control, a faint trace of power was transferred from the phantom of the demon wolf on Adams to the phantom of the demon wolf on Lina.

For every trace of the power of the demon wolf's shadow that is successfully transferred, Lina's upper limit of mental power increases by one point.

Time passes slowly.

Lina's mental power continues to exceed the upper limit.

When the power of the Wolf God's mark had been absorbed by Lina, Lina's upper limit of mental power had reached the terrifying 100,000 units.

If she absorbs the remaining power of the Wolf God's mark, Lina's upper limit of mental power can be increased by 20,000 units, but it is too dangerous. Once she fails, Lina's mental space will be shattered and become a vegetative state, so Roja does not Keep going.

One hundred thousand units is enough, there is no need to risk lives by pursuing the last twenty thousand units.

The ceremony is over.

Lina fell asleep peacefully, with a tear of happiness in the corner of her eyes.

I don't know whether I'm happy that I survived or that the ceremony was a success. It's probably both.

After Roja glanced at the sleeping Lina, his eyes fell on Adams.

After the power of the Wolf God's mark disappeared, Adams's spirit began to collapse.

Before Adams' mental space completely collapsed and disappeared.

"Condensation!"

Roya condensed Adams' mental fragments into a spiritual body.

Looking at Adams' mental body slowly disappearing with his eyes closed, Roja sighed regretfully, "I was still thinking that maybe I could help him regain consciousness for a few minutes in the end and talk about the past with him, isn't it true?"

"Thanks."

"Um?"

Roja's body was shocked.

Adams' spirit completely dissipated.

"Maybe it's just an auditory hallucination." Roja shook his head and didn't care too much.

He carried the sleeping Lina out of the room.

When he announced to the bipolar hunter clan waiting outside that the ceremony had been completed perfectly and that Lina already had the upper limit of 100,000 units of mental power, everyone waiting outside was so excited that they burst into tears.

"The thousand-year long cherished wish of our bipolar hunter clan has finally come true!"

"Break through the shackles of blood and step into the official realm of wizards. Lina, you are the hope of our family."

"Loya, thank you. From now on, our bipolar hunter clan will be dominated by you, Lord Roja!"
